Gus appreciation of their gravity,
and, on that account, your support
aud cooperation are earnestly re-
quested.
congratulate you upon the ia
vorable auspices under which you
have met and organized; which [ am
pleased to predict, fortell pleas
ant and profitable session Of your
Honorable Bodies.
The Constitution makes it my
duty, and it viii be my pleasure, to
give you such information as shall

kind or offensive words were ut
tered by either respecting the other.
/ hope there remain III store for
my predecessor many years of
healthful, happy and useful life.

everything that has not already been de-

against some of the candidates are ridic-

Petticoat Defonses,

The most striking feature of the Bodyke
evictions hiss been the employment of wo-
men as defenders of the house attacked
The explanation is that the Irish police
will endure any amount of maltreatmeut
rather than retort on a garrison in petit
coats. So it is women who are chosen to
threw stirabout, whitewash and boiling
water. Nevertheless one or two girls, or old
crones, for accounts differ, have suffered
in the melee after the oesiegers got in.
Hence questions in the House, especially
a question ABOUT an old woman bludgeon,
which MIR. Bslfour parted in way that
reused Radical wrath. Mr.. Davitt is now
represented by the correspondent of one
home rule paper as playing the part OF a
pescemRker at Bodyke. The home rule
paper thinks this is difficult to reconcile
with his warllke hsrangue.

SPRINGFIELD, Ill, June 2S.-Many of
the leading breeders and shippers of
cattle of the central portion OF the state
held a meeting to-day ana effected a
formal organization for the purpose OF
combating the proposed change in rates
for shipments of cattle from car lot plan
TO the plan of shipments by weight. A
memorial was adopted for transmission
to the secretary of the treasury setting
forth that contagious pleuro-pneumonia
exists 10 an alarming extent in
Scotland, and that cattle from the
infected districts are allowed to
land in Canadian ports and that as the
Treasury Department OF the United
States scheduled against the Importation
OF such cattle from Scotland they request
that shipments of cattle from Canada to
the United States be prohibited until the
Dominion authorities take such action in
regard TO the shipments of cattle from
Scotland as shall insure certain immunity
to the United State from their impOrta-
ton through the Canadian territory.

Despite the fact that they bring but
little money sand are worth much less
than they generally sell for there are
good many mustangs or Texas ponies
shipped and driven through this part
of the country. About all there is to
recommend them is their cheapness
snd their power of endurance. They
are generally tough animals in more
wsYs than one. There certainly can
be no bonanza in gathering them up
in the southwest and shipping or
driving them many miles, as dealers N
them are obliged to find market and
then take the prices they sell for. Judging
from the class of men who generally deal
in such stock, it would seem that the
business has never been very lucrative
one. With the class of men who think
that 8 horse is horse, no matter what
his size, style or disposition, these plugs
file place where better horses would grad
ually ind their way; but as long as they
can be procured for so little money they
will be sought after by those who look
upou horses as they do upon donkeys or
beasts of burden, which ale for hard usage
onlv end not to be tolerated for their
beauty as well as their usefulness. Is Is
always better TO grade up than down,
and farmers that would improve their
stock of horses instead OF masking it
worse will do well TO steer clear OF mus
tsnrs, no matter WHIST oily-tongued
dealers may claim for them National

SIMPLICITY IN FUNERALS.

Notwithstanding the earnest efforts
made by many ministers and leading
public journals to restrain the excessive
cost of funerals, the expensive display in
the burial of the dead is increasing rather

funerals wss confined to people of abund-

funeral occasions, ii would be g matter
of little or no concern 10 the public; but
so far as there has been any growth of
simplicity IN funerals it has been chiefly
among the more Intelligent and opuleDt
people, while those who can least afford
extTGvagsnt funerals are compelled by
what they regard as an imperious Gus
tom 10 exhibit their appreciation Of their
dead by the wanton outlay OF money in
their burial.
A great funeral parade on the burial

vulgar display. Grief for the dead is the

Indeed, the burial of the dead should
be as fer removed as possible from the

to the gaze and loving offices of those who
mourn for them; and there should be alb

The late Legislature of Pennsylvania
passed q very radical law on the subject
OF married womsn's control over her
property and right to make contracts for
herself. 1t provides that marriage shall
not impose any disability Gas to the &C
QUESTION, y nership, possession, control,
use or disposition Of the property OF any
kind, real or personal" Of g married
woman, or of her "right and power
to make contracts Of any kind,
in any trade OF business in which
she may engage, or for necesssries,
or for the use, enjoyment and
improvement Of her separate estate, and
to give obligations binding herself there
for" Under the common law a married
woman cannot exercise these powers eX-
cept through q trustee; but under this
Pennsylvania statute she may control her
own property, make contracts, sue and be
sued in actions separate from her nus
band, the same as & single woman, and
without the Intervention of "neXt
friend" She can make leases, sales snd
assignments of her own property, real
and personal and make q will Sin the
same manner as if she were unmar-
ried.n The right TO mortgage
her real estate is excepted from these
privileges; she still can not do this; nor
become an lndorser or surety for another
without her husband Joining inHthe act.
A will made by her before marriage is
not Affected by her marriage, and the law
seems to give her the right to dispose of
all her property, real and personal, by
will, without regard to the claims or
interest of her husband therein. 1t makes
g long stride in the direction of woman's
rights, but whether 1t will have the effect
of making the conjugal union in PennsYl.

not, remains TO be seen.
